We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a ball in Edinburg in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you carry the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and opt for slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Edinburg quick and painless. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
